speaking OF the Southern Mutual
Insurance Company, gentleman of
Athens, Ca, who knows whereof he
speaks says: II believe they dc charge a
fraction more, but then you get it nearly
all back again. Last year they declared
a dividend of 70 per cent, and I would
not be surprised if they this year make
it 100 per cent.-or in other words
refund to the policy holders every cent.
they paid in for insurance. But for that
foolish division of the funds, they would
have been doing this before now. They
don't want more than a million surplus,
and the income from this sum, unless
there are an unusual number of fires,
will not only pay the expenses of this
company, but the losses also. What
better showing do you want? I tell you,
Athens don't half appreciate the South
ern Mutual, or the stockholders properly
honor the gentlemen who manage it.
Why, there is hardly another parallel
case in existence, where such unswerv.
ing fidelity to public trust has been
shown. The old Southern Mutual will
endure as long as our government stands,
for the gentlemen at its head elect none
to have voice in its management unless
confident of their honor and ability. All
those reports about exhorbitant salaries
are without foundation. No like set of
men in the world are given such small
salaries, considering the responsible posi-.
tions they occupy.

A. Sumter County Invention,

Wehave had the pleasure of inspecting
what seems to US a very admirable seed
and manure drill, which is the invention
of MIR. J. Fl. Nichols of Priyateer Town
ship, nine miles OF so from the town of
Sumter. The sower is especially adapted
to the sowing Of cotton or peas, either by
drilling or in hills. It will successfully
plant an acre of peas with ten quarts.
In sowing peas it will save SIS out of
.$22 on broadcasting, including the work
and with better results.
Besides, this is a most efficient manure
drill. Itcan be readily. changed from q
pea sower to a cotton sower by simply
changing the feeder that works in the
throttle of the machine. Ir planting
peas, the ground is opened by what looks
like small bull tongue, whilst two small
turn plows attached follow and cover the
sowing. In the case Of cotton, sweep
attached follows snd covers.
This is one of the most complete things
we have ever seen.
Mr.. Nichols will have this drill on our
market in a few days, aud our planters
would do we'll to examine it before sup.
plying themselves elsewhere. We have
no interest in this matter save to encour-
age worthy man Of our own soil in
calling attention to what we esteem q
good invention Columbia Register.

The Contaglon Of Crime.

CLEVELAND, OH1o, January 28.--
When Mrs. Cabelek murdered her three
children and then committed suicide the
newspapers published long accounts of
the crime. a Bohemian sheet here had
a very graphic description of the premi.
ses and long interviews with the surviv-
ing children. Frank Roth, q Bohemian,
living st 10 Amos street, read the report
to his wife, two children and his mother.
in.law. He is a well-to. do mechanic and
lived happily. His wife listened to the
account of the Cabalek murder, and then
had her husband to re.read it. He went
over it third time and then she took
the paper to neighbor's and had it read
twice more. On Thursday she sent her
mother to the grocery for yeast, and then
she took heavy dose of Trough on
Rats" and forced dose of the poison
down the throat of her babe. When the
old mother returned she alarmed the
neighborhood, and doctors were called,
but they came too late. The woman
died in great agony, and the babe expired
soon after. The doctors have kept the
affair to themselves and the police did
not learn of it until to-day.

Minister Pendleton's Return.

New YORK, January 3l.-The Hon.
Geo. A. Pendleton, Minister to Berlin,
who has just arrived here, will remain
in. this country about a month. He in.
tends to rest two or three days, and will
then 60 to Washington to report TO the
Secretary of State. After that he will go
to his home in Cincinnati, where he will
remain for brief period before his de-
parture for his post Of duty. Being in
terviewed be remarked:
The situation, when I left Berlin, was
very much strained. The Powers of
Europe, from general feeling of inse-
cur;ty, have been making immense pre-
parations. There are tremendous mill
tary works and alarmnents on every side.
I heard Won Moltke say it was a condi-
tion of affairs that must have solution.
1t may have changed since then. Mr..
Pendleton said he could not see that any
one in Germany desired war. In fact,
every effort was being made to avoid it.
Bismarck was net ready for war now.
He would not be ready until the military
bills had been passed, and the army re-.
organized. "Ir fact" added the ambas.
sador, "it seems to me that Bismarck
would accord heartily with any PROPOSE
ton for peace with honor. Public
opinion does not count in Europe as it
does here. In America all questions are
discussed freely by the press, which in
reality forms public opinion. In Ger.
many public policy is decided differently.
Won Moltke, Bismarck and two or three
others settle such matters. In France
Gen. Boulanger leads. One peculiar
thing would strike Americans in Europe,
that is how little the people influence
the policy of the rulers.''
In speaking of the military bill Mr..
Pendleton said he was in the Reichstag
when the final vote was taken. he ex.
planned that the effect of the bill was to
add $4,000 men to the army and organize
an effective force, divided in squadrons,
battalions, &C., different from the present
organization. The bill provided for its
continuance for a term of seven years.
This would have done away with yearly
appropriations,

AZ considerable amount of business

fishing experimental stations in the

WASHINGTON, January 29.-There has
been great effort to lionize Congress.
man Frank Hiscock, of New York, since
he returned to Washington with the sen.
atorial prize which dropped between
Morton and Miller in their desperate
The only lion.like thing about
Mr.. Hiscock, is his long, shaggy hair.
But he and his friends are attributiDg to
his election q significance far beyond his
own triumph. They say it was
A VICTORY FOR BLAINE,
no less than for .Hiscock, and was the
first organized movement in the direction
Of the nomination of Mr.. Blaine for the
presidency. Mr.. Hiscock talks with an
air of authority about Mr.. Blaine's can
didacy. He is said to be "whooping up"
the Blaine men in congress. His most
active coadjutor in this business is Con-
gresham VIM. Walter Phelps, of New
Jersey, the "my dear Phelps" Of Blaine's
famous letter of explanation which didn't
explain.
The activity OF this element in the re-
publican party does not surprise any, 1y
in Washington. 1t has been conceded
here all the time that Blaine would be
candidate for his party's nomination next
year, and that it would be almost impos.
sible for the other aspirants to prevent
his capture of the convention. A con-
siderable feeling in favor of the nomina.
ton of Senator Allison, of Iowa, has
developed during this session, but it is
far inferior to the Blaine movement
among the Republican Congressman, and
still more hopeless among the masses Of
tie party. The friends of Mr. Allison
may succeed in putting him second on
the ticket. They cannot reasonably
hope to do more. Delighted as the
Blaine men are at the prospect of his
nomination, they are not more pleased
than are many Democrats in Congress
who think Blaine the weakest possible
Republican candidate.
Cleveland against Blaine is the head
ing of most of the political states for
1888 which have been made up in Wash
ington. "TlAo same candidates and the
same result" will be foot note on these
states in November CT next year.
